Identify T3/T4 Trim

[kermit]

Can anyone tell me which t3/t4 trim this is? It's a T3/To4E .48 A/F .63 Turbine that I was told was capable of 650hp. Thanks

Hard to tell from pics, but it looks like it's just a T3 turbo. What does the compressor wheel measure? The intake looks smaller than 3 inch.

i don't know, i found it on ebay, and i have the chance to buy it, but the seller doesn't know what trim it is.

Ask him to measure the inlet, for starters. Better yet, tell him to post a pic of a tape measure across the inlet looking straight at the compressor wheel.

On the compressor inlet is 2.25inchs and outlet is 2inchs.

You want the seller to measure the compressor wheel.

If I were you, I wouldn't buy this turbo. It has damage to the compressor wheel and it'll need a rebuild and balancing.

That's what I thought. It's not a T3/T4, it's just a T3, .63 A/R prob a 60 trim off a Ford. You gotta be carefull on ebay, every other turbo on there is listed as a T3/T4, wether it's a T3, T4 or who knows what!

FYI, some Volvo 240s has a turbo like that. AFAIK, the Ford compressor housing was different.
